Managing a 401(k) plan can be overwhelming for businesses. It requires overseeing employee contributions, ensuring compliance with IRS and DOL regulations, maintaining records, and fulfilling fiduciary duties. A PEO takes the burden off your shoulders by providing expert 401(k) administration, minimizing risk, and ensuring compliance.
Why Managing a 401(k) In-House Is Challenging
Administering a 401(k) plan requires meticulous management, from processing employee contributions to complying with strict regulatory requirements. Employers must also uphold fiduciary responsibilities, ensuring the plan serves the best interests of employees. These complexities can lead to increased liability and administrative stress.
